Mojang Migration Broke My 9 Year Old Minecraft Account - Good Job.

MafuForest · Apr 21, 2022

Can this even be fixed?

I have a Mojang account that is now being forced to migrate to be a Microsoft account - fair enough.
But once I begin actually migrating it tells me it's sent a code out to an email that nobody can access, the email I used to sign up in 2013, 9 years ago.
I've gone through password recovery for the ancient AOL email but again, I cannot access it because the recovery options for the account are old.

I can login through every method and prove my usage of the account, but apparently I lose 9 years of **** on that account because of this ***** migration.
If there's not a fix for this then I'm going full Karen.

Hi MafuForest! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

You should contact Mojang support to check what options you have about this as the issue is on the Mojang account and not the Microsoft account

Remember that when time change and you will no longer use the same contact information you should update it so you won't face this issues, you had to change the email information on your Mojang account as soon as you stop using the current email as for every important change on any service handled by email is necessary to have access to the email

How old is this account?

Did you migrate it from Mojang?

Microsoft accounts have been required on Minecraft for many years, are you sure you didn't forget?

That's normal, you can't access the old Mojang account after the migration, you need to use the email you used to migrate the Mojang account to, in the launcher you need to select Minecraft Java and then Microsoft login and then use the email you use during the migration process

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues logging into your old Minecraft account.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

To give you a heads up, Minecraft accounts were migrated from Mojang accounts to Microsoft accounts, so first confirm whether your old account was a Mojang account (used email to log in) or you have already migrated it to a Microsoft account (migrated and linked)?

Please give an update in order for the correct information will be given to you to be able to sign into your Minecraft account.

Thank you very much.

How am I supposed to Migrate my account if I already have a Microsoft account. Can I not just have two accounts on the same profile.

Also Mojang said the this to me.
